Hello friends. Due to a recent remodel I have lots of old cabinets and drawers from my kitchen. I would love to make a beehive out of them if possible. Can anyone direct me to some info on this project? Thank you.

Nothing makes sense until I venture outside

years ago, a swarm moved into an old dresser on my friend's porch. he had quite a time getting them into a proper hive.

maybe the best bee use for those drawers would be as bait hives. build a cover, cut an entrance, add some brood comb and lemongrass oil and you're set.
